Even though she was a concubine, Yu Miaoge was the legitimate daughter of the Yu family, and this ceremony was very grand.
Although it is not a formal wedding process, the proper etiquette, music and banquet are still included.
During the banquet, there was a lot of drinking and drinking...
Laughter, singing, and the sound of ritual music are endless.
All kinds of drinks were poured towards Zhao Si...
Zhao Si ignored the details of the banquet and only focused on waiting for the simple reception to end.
The betrothal gift brought by Zhao Si was considered expensive, but the dowry returned by the Yu family was even more generous.
As a father, Yu Miaoge is a concubine and his status is not equal to that of his wife. Yu Feng can only give more compensation on top of the dowry so that Yu Miaoge's status and future life can be better.
For the Yu family, this is also the first step in establishing a good relationship with Zhao Si.
The Yu family is a prominent family in Wuzhong. They don't lack money. What they lack is the foundation and a strong backing. Such an investment is obviously very worthwhile.
Zhao Si did not know the specific value of the dowry, but the carriage alone could pull eighteen carts.
It can be said that the Yu family is bleeding heavily. As a family member, even if it means being slapped in the face, you still have to save your face. This is a big fortune, even for the entire Yu family, it will take more than ten years to accumulate.
In fact, when getting married in this era, the dowry is usually more generous than the bride price... Not to mention that Yu Miaoge is a concubine. If you want to improve Yu Miaoge's status, you have to put more thought into the dowry.
After going back and forth, he took a concubine, and Zhao Si made a fortune for nothing.
"Ah... I like the dregs of feudal society!" Zhao Siman sighed inexplicably while drinking water.
Betrothal gift, dowry...it belongs to future generations who will remove the dross and extract the essence.
When we arrived, there were two small cars, but when we returned, it was full of eighteen people, plus Yu Miaoge, whom Zhao Si had longed for.
Indeed, I think about it from my heart,
Before he saw her, Zhao Sizhi thought that he had enough experience and could be considered a man who had experienced many battles. He thought that Yu Miaoge was just a beauty with a historical aura.
But after seeing it, I can only say that it smells great.
Zhao Si really couldn't stand such a test, and their lives, which should have had nothing to do with each other, began to intersect for various reasons.
There is no bloody plot in the story, no hero saving the beauty, no gradual progress.
It's just that Zhao Si got interested in the situation, and it happened that the First Emperor was willing to accommodate Zhao Si in a small way on this matter, and the Yu family followed suit and had no choice but to do so.
The emotions of Yu Miaoge, the person involved, were not important to the First Emperor or the Yu family.
This is just a small capriciousness of power.
Of course, Zhao Si still had some inexplicable emotions in his heart.
Judging from the two families, they may be well-matched. For Yu Miaoge, there may be some lack of respect. However, Zhao Si admits that he is an old person. When he first saw him, he thought that the person he had longed for in the second dimension had jumped. Who can endure this in front of me?
After returning from the Yu family, there is no ceremony to speak of.
The Yu family is my mother's family, and no one can find fault with the lavish display of noodles there.
But on Zhao Si's side, it was the First Emperor who made the decision, and the etiquette standards should be whatever they were.
After all, taking a concubine is not marrying a wife, it is just a banquet hosted by Zhao Si.
In addition to Zhao Si's retainers, the invitees also included some eloquent officials in the court.
Wang Li, Li Si, Dun Ruo, Tian Xin, Shusun Tong, Cheng Miao and others were among them.
"Drink this cup!" Wang Li, who had not appeared for a long time, raised the wine bottle and said with a smile on his face.
Concubines are not as good as wives, but they are not so casual. Doctor Qing can only have one wife and two concubines. Zhao Sichu has a concubine. She is the first official woman in name. It is also something worthy of a big feast to celebrate.
"Drink full! Drink full!" Zhao Si smiled, raised his head and drank from the wine bottle.
"Please drink up!" Shusun Tong also raised a glass to celebrate with a smile.
"Please!" Dunwei, a thousand-year-old iceberg, also smiled.
Zhao Si's disciples also raised their glasses.
It can be said that Zhao Si did not reject anyone who came, and drank to his heart's content.
"Li Xiang?"
Only Li Si remained silent during the dinner, and Zhao Si raised his glass to signal.
"This is my first concubine after all, so I won't toast you so that I can save some energy for you." Li Si smiled and drank it all in one gulp.
Zhang Cang also raised his glass to indicate that he would drink it all in one gulp.
After all, Li Si was the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, and he was still reliable in such critical situations.
Zhao Si usually doesn't have any airs and can get along with anyone. Naturally, at this special time, he has no control. Li Si is considerate at this time, and everyone also becomes considerate.
With Li Si and Zhang Cang setting an example, everyone who had given a round of toasts stopped urging them to drink, and Xiao Jiujiu, who was thinking of getting Zhao Si drunk, disappeared because of this.
"My lord has just welcomed a newcomer, so don't pay attention to this group of wine drinkers and go on your own!" Zhang Cang said with a smile.
Zhang Cang also came to Zhao Si's rescue. Liu Bang was more thoughtful, and when he saw Zhang Cang opening his mouth, he quickly agreed and urged Zhao Si to leave.
"My lord, please go, my lord, please go!"
Liu Bang came to Zhao Si's rescue, but this old gangster didn't hesitate to say anything on this occasion, which felt a bit unseemly.
Zhao Si's acceptance of so many followers finally came in handy at this moment. A group of people persuaded Zhao Si to leave the banquet, and the remaining officials naturally couldn't open their mouths to retain bad people and good things.
"In that case, I'll excuse myself. Please take care of all the guests for me, sir!" Zhao Si complained.
Zhang Cang naturally took over the important task of entertaining guests for Zhao Si, and Zhao Si left in a hurry.
He couldn't wait to have a more formal meeting with Yu Miaoge.
After only taking two steps, Zhao Si's steps were interrupted by the sudden visit of the First Emperor.
Zhao Si, who was about to leave, could only temporarily go to meet the arrival of the First Emperor urgently.
"It seems I came at the wrong time?"
The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si who was standing in front of him with a smile on his face and asked.
"No, Your Majesty, you came at the right time!" Zhao Si smiled.
"Your Majesty, it is a blessing to have you here..." Free flattery flew out of Zhao Si's mouth non-stop.
The First Emperor couldn't help but smile when he saw this.
Zhao Si usually has something wrong when he flatters him.
It was obvious that Zhao Si did not want to stay long between banquets.
Fortunately, the First Emperor was also a man and had been young. He naturally understood Zhao Si's excitement and did not force anyone to make things difficult. He just waved his hand and said: "Go down, I will go to the banquet myself."
"Sure, then I'll retire first!" Zhao Si chuckled and didn't give the First Emperor a chance to say another sentence. As soon as he finished speaking, he had already disappeared.
"This kid..." The First Emperor didn't even put down his raised hand.
"Young...he is a young man in his early twenties after all!" Li Si put his sleeves up and came to salute in front of the First Emperor.
The First Emperor shook his head and laughed when he heard this.
Yes, young guy, this guy is indeed young and always lively, and you can feel an inexplicable vitality even when you get along with him.
Li Si led the First Emperor to the main seat. The arrival of the First Emperor brought the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax. No one expected that the First Emperor would also attend in person.
After all, this is Zhao Si's private matter, and the significance of the First Emperor's appearance on this occasion is self-evident.
Zhao Si didn't have any relatives, and everyone present was actually from a well-known family. Zhang Cang had organized the entire banquet for him. In terms of status and talent, Zhang Cang was qualified, but after all, he lacked a bit of intimacy.
The First Emperor has always been close to Zhao Si, which is also a fact recognized by all officials. Now it seems that this closeness... I am afraid that everyone present has underestimated it.
There were different thoughts at the banquet, but Zhao Si's was quite simple.
Although he came back with Yu Miaoge, Zhao Si and Yu Miaoge only met each other when they got on and off the car. They only had formal conversations with each other. Now Zhao Si was impatient to close the doors and windows. I can talk quietly with my new partner.
Zhao Si quickly ran into the yard, until the hurried steps in front of the door slowed down again. Zhao Si adjusted his clothes subconsciously, and he felt a rare and strange feeling of rushing.
"Should I knock on the door?"
As he walked to the door, an inexplicable idea popped into Zhao Si's mind.
"I've met the master!" The maid waiting in front of the door bowed and saluted. Zhao Si ignored the messy thoughts and pushed the door open.
At that moment, the figure of the beautiful lady who was kneeling and waiting in front of the table trembled for a moment.
Zhao Si walked inside and looked at the beauty kneeling in front of the table.
Today, Yu Miaoge is wearing a black and gold dress.
It's not red makeup, Qin Shang is black. The higher the specification, the closer the color of the dress is to black, and the style is also different depending on the identity.
The aesthetics of Qin are not popular in Chu State, but it also depends on who Yu Miaoge marries.
The gentle and gentle woman like Shui looks solemn when she puts on a black and gold dress. The beauty like Shui, who has a slightly inconsistent temperament but slightly frowns, gives a contrasting beauty with this dress.
"I'm going to bring my husband... a bowl of ginger soup." Yu Miaoge looked at Zhao Si who was standing in front of him and hesitated several times, smelling of alcohol, and finally spoke first, even though he had already done it in his heart. I went through many psychological preparations, but I was still a little uneasy.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not drunk." Zhao Si heard the title from Yu Miaoge's mouth, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.
He was indeed not drunk, and he didn't drink much. Zhang Cang and Li Si stopped him, but... everyone gets drunk even if they are not drunk.
"Madam..." Zhao Si held Yu Miaoge's hand.
Having said that, this was the first time Zhao Si and Yu Miaoge had physical contact.
Very soft, very ice, very soft, very smooth, very moist...
Yu Miaoge's fingers trembled subconsciously.
"It's...it's not dark yet." Yu Miaoge's face was visibly red.
"It's already dark." Zhao Si closed the curtains, leaving only dim light and green shadows.
One night...ah, one day and one night without words.
Although melon is strong in a sense.
But it’s not only sweet, it’s also thirst-quenching.
(No more...)
